Sometime in our history, someone had
to name our school as Pioneers. Some¬
one believed this group of students could
become Pioneers. The pioneer of early
times was a settler who plowed his way
through rough, unexplored land toward
his goal. He lived a hard life settling in
new territory, opening doors for future
advancement. . .
Pioneers!
But what is a Pioneer? another Prairie Belle. Whether you are
in track or speech, cheerleading or

and
traditions ...
A Pioneer strives for the best. He
sets goals and assertively tries to keep
them. But he must believe he can
make things better and he will achieve
that goal.
A Pioneer goes first. New traditions
and ideas are started by Pioneers.
Without Pioneers, we would not have a
spirit stick, we would not have anyone
in speech or sports go to State . . .

believing in making better.
That is what the CLARION is all
about, showing how in this year, nine
months of our lives were spent. This
yearbook says to us what our group of
students as Pioneers can do or be,
what we have done in the past, and
what we can do in the future.
In every section of this book, there
is something worthwhile to look at, no
matter what you’re interested in. Take
time to read and see if you succeeded
in being a Pioneer, if not, try harder
next year.
Your days as ll-High Pioneers are
numbered, if not over, so become a
Pioneer any way that you can.
Because remember, we are not Iron-
men, or Saints, or Raiders, but PIO¬
NEERS.
To be a Pioneer in high school is
why we came to UHS and with help
from the students, faculty, and admin¬
istration, everyone can become one.

Secret
pals
add fun
Spirit was the objective for the 1977-
78 basketball and wrestling seasons.
Cheerleaders and Prairie Belles psyched
the basketball players up by starting
“secret pals.” Pep Club members soon
joined in to help cheer on the wrestlers.
Every “secret pal” gave their special
person a little gift before a game or

match. Everything was done in secret
and the pals announced themselves to
the guys on Valentine’s Day by sending
coded messages, clues, and decorated
cakes. Some of the secret pals had been
discovered, but all in all it was fun.
Cheerleaders and Prairie Belles ended
their escapades by holding the first
annual Secret Pal Dinner on February 15
for the basketball players and coaches.
This was one idea that started spirit,
but there was one idea that proved to rise
above the rest. The idea originally
started as a return of our mascot which
had not been seen for several years. It
soon evolved into a Pioneer carrying a
garbage can with the immortal words
“Pioneers Can — Others Can’t.” Jeff
Wilson had the honor of being the ever-
rowdy Pioneer who jumped to his feet
whenever times were troubled or the
boys needed an extra boost. Jeff was
often seen shooting down the opposing
team's members with his rifle or raising
the garbage can lid to receive cries and
cheers of victory from the crowd. The
idea was a success and gave the home
basketball games an air of excitement.

The varsity gridders got off to a disap¬

Centra! Catholic in the closing seconds.
But this wouldn’t stop the Pioneers from
fighting. After losing to Clifton Central
they bounced back, beating Pontiac and
Clinton.
The football team lost 3 more games
before closing the season with 2 more
victories, making their record 4-5.
The final home game against Olympia
proved to be the most exciting. Joe Wat¬
kins ran back the opening second half
kickoff for a touchdown and in order to
clinch the victory, the gridders rallied
with an 80 yd. scoring drive in the clos¬
ing minutes to win 20-15.
Fans were loyal throughout the season
with a lot of spirit. Many students showed
up at home and away games. Pep buses
were taken to Clifton Central, Pontiac
and Eureka. Signs decorated the
lounge and the senior guys
spelled U-High at the last home
game — in unmentionable
places.
All in all the team was truly a
team in effort as well as attitude.
Tim Bergin and Mike Ritt were
elected to the Intercity squad,
while several players were voted
to the all-conference team. More
were named special or honora¬

Bergin and Mike Ritt. Captains,

Psych up — psych out
Players and cheerleaders congratulate themselves on an Inter-City win.
Faces showed a different kind of
excitement lockers were decorated, and
students actually started eyeing the bas¬
ketball players. What was this new,
happy state of being that has overcome
U-High students? It’s called State rank¬
ing. Our basketball team in all its style
was ranked in State, climbing until it
finally hit #5.
But. . . All good things must end, and
unfortunately instead of ending in
Champaign with bright lights, and the
roar of the crowds, it all ended in Colfax
(and you may justifiably wonder where
that is!) on a poorly lighted court with
fans awed at what the flu and a few bad
breaks can do to a team.
The basketball team showed great
potential and had some really good play¬
ers. Leading the team this year were Tom
Burke, MVP, and Rod Armstrong, honor¬
ary captain. There were some exciting
times, like Tom Burke's dunk in the
Olympia game. There were some tense
times, like the Central game in the Pit,
There were some psych-up times, like
Ros Hill’s and Curt Coffer’s secret
rebounding contest to see who could pull
in the most. And there were some disap¬
pointing times, like the IVC game where
our first heart-breaking loss came with
only a small handful of fans attending.
But truthfully, with a record of 15-10 who
can complain?

record
disap¬
pointing
The first season of class-competition
baseball proved to be disappointing for
the Pioneers. Early losses against AA
schools led to a 4-16-1 record. Hopefully
this tough competition had prepared
UHS for tournament competition, but
disciplinary action limited the team’s
power as they lost an extra innings game
against Chenoa in the regional.
Senior pitcher Tom Scott served as
team captain and MVP. Scott and Don
Manzke were voted to the Ail-Conference
team.

Mick Scott seems ready to shake his opponent's hand, yet not in the traditional way.
It was a rebuilding year for this
year’s grapplers. Due to the loss of six
seniors from last year’s squad. Coach
George Girardi was left with only four
seniors and the rest of the squad was
comprised of underclassmen.
The team was led by the four sen¬
iors. Mick Scott qualified for State at
167# and had a record of 25-7. Mick
was also leading scorer and MVP.
Brian Galloway placed second in Dis¬
trict at 132# and had a record of 22-
13. Jon Doud also placed second in
District at 112#. He finished the sea¬
son with a record of 17*12-1. Jim
Brandt placed third in District at 138

Other letter winners were Ron Poes,
Tom Murray, Tom Adams, Joel Hart¬

Jon Doud is declared the winner in a meet at U-

Dr. George Girardi was one of the
finest faculty members that Univer¬
sity High School has had. He was
and still is a great promoter of
sports, particularly wrestling, in
which he has become the “Pio¬
neer” of Illinois wrestling. Coach
Girardi has coached the U-High
grapplers to the top 3 teams in the
state in the last four years. He has
received numerous honors, includ¬
ing Illinois Coach of the Year and
induction into the Illinois Wrestling
Hall of Fame. In addition. Dr. Gir¬
ardi leaves U-High as the recipient
of the 1978 Teacher Service Award
for outstanding and distinguished
service to University High School.
All of us at U-High, students and
faculty alike, would like to wish Dr.
Girardi the best of luck in whatever
he pursues.

Swim team had a long season, a
young team, and a new coach. Coach
Richard Pein encourage the tankers to
start shaping up in the fall even
though the IHSA had moved swim¬
ming to the spring season. So all win¬
ter long, through their own dedication,
the swim team braved the cold
weather to practice.
By spring, the team's dedication
began to pay off. The team found the
spring season an advantage as it
could use Horton pool for its meets.
Only one senior was on the team, but
that didn't hold the swimmers back.
They opened with a victory over
Champaign Central and set up a good
record against mostly AA schools, fin¬

championship and a dual meet with

This year was the first time that the
entire tennis team attended State.
They placed in the top third of the
teams participating.
Tennis is only one class, whereas
other sports such as football, golf,
baseball, and basketball are more
than one class. The netters had to play
large schools as well as small schools,
so their going to State was indeed an
accomplishment.
Comprised of mostly underclass¬
men, the tennis team won District and
had a 6-5 record. One high point of
the year was defeating BHS in a tie¬
breaker, which enabled them to
advance to State.

The harriers enjoyed one of their best
seasons ever. It started with the usual 5-
7 miles a day in the 90° weather. As the
season progressed, the weather cooled
and the hard work began to pay off. The
team placed second out of 17 teams at
the Early Bird Classic in Minonk, and sec¬
ond out of 31 teams at the Spartan Clas¬
sic at St. Joseph Ogden.
Then at District, after thinking they
had won, the runners were disheartened
to learn that they had missed first by 2
points, once again getting second. In
sectional the thinclads placed seventh,
missing state by 2 points. The MVP was
Alan Gill.

A great year is the only way to
describe the sophomore football
team’s season. They were undefeated,
for the first time in 15 years, with a
record of 7-0. Only two teams were
able to score against them. The play¬
ers averaged 25 points a game to 2
points a game for the opponent. They
feel that their success was due to the
coaching and their practicing with the
varsity. They were a close-knit team
and that really paid off.

The Sophomore Basketball team
had a record of 10-13 this year. They
came in second at the St. Bede Tour¬
nament. The team was plagued with
many injuries throughout the year.
Steve Girardi, Steve Riddle, and Todd
Vohland all suffered injuries. Many of
the squad members had experience
from practicing with the varsity. This
and the fact that Coach Morris ran
them a lot so that they would be in bet¬
ter shape than anyone added up for a
good season.

off for the girls’ tennis team as they
staged their first winning season ever
with an 8-4 record and advanced three

to State.
Karen Deighan and Lori Duncan,
the No. t doubles team had a 10-2

The talented spikers did better than
their record shows. The team played
many AA schools and vastly improved
as the long season progressed. The
young team (without a single senior)
promises to be one of the strongest
teams around next year.
More important than records, the
team was brought closer together with
team T-shirts sporting each player’s
nicknames on the back, topless bus

being responsible for a “spirited sur¬
prise” for each game.

of spring
play
“Dark at the Top of the Stairs” was
U-High’s spring drama. Fear was the
theme; fear of people, fear of life, and
fear of ‘the dark at the top of the
stairs.’ The play centered around the
lives of a family from Oklahoma. The
family members were played by Jon
Westcot, Juliet Pritner, Erin
McCarney, and Metcalf student, Troy
Thiel. *
Other cast members included: Meg
Moore, Sara Myers, Kris Hagglund,
Jerry LoMonaco, Alan Gill, and two
more Metcalf students, Tom Little and
J. D. Scringeour.
Although the crowds were small, the
play ran well both performances.

Exercise, placed well in its competition
with the state. After a victory in the
District and a second at Sectional, the
show tied for a second at State, but
placed third after the tie-breaking pro¬
cedure.
The play itself concerns the relation¬
ship of two very different people work¬
ing out the differences between them.
Both cast members, Chris McHugh
and Alan Gill, were unanimously
selected to the All-State Cast for their
portrayals of ‘the actress' and ‘the
actor,’ respectively. The performance
was also greatly enhanced by the tech¬
nical skills and offstage voices of Tom
Downs and Chip Liston.

Karen Carmichael, Meg Moore, and Anne Sessions (I to r) discuss the outcome of last weekend's tour¬
nament.
. . and the winner is — University
High School.’'
That sentence was repeated week¬
end after weekend during the 1977-
78 speech season. The speech team
started off a little slowly, but gained
speed quickly finally winning the Dis¬
trict and Sectional contest and send¬
ing eight team members to State.
At State, U-High was represented by
Seniors Sue Erickson, Dana Davidson,
Chris McHugh, Pete Ericksen, Alan
Gill, Rima Petrossian, Anne Bushnell,
and Junior Erin McCarney. In the
finals Dana placed 7th in dramatic
interpretation. Sue placed 5th in
humorous interpretation, Chris and
Pete placed 5th in dramatic duet act¬
ing, and Alan placed 3rd in oratorical
declamation.
Closing out the season speech team
members attended the Tournament of
Champions. While there, Dana David¬
son, Chris McHugh, Pete Erickson,
Erin McCarney, and Eric Secoy
received special honors and Karen
Carmichael won original oratory.
All in all Coaches Carol Weidmann,
Sue Sherman, and Bob Neuleib felt
the year was a big success.
Novice Francie Eberhard prepares her original
oratory.
Senior Dana Davidson works her way to State.
Steve Cushman apparently disagrees with some¬
one’s statement.
Miss Weidmann explains the ins and outs of debating to Kris Hagglund and Mark Schroeder.
Of the 15 people who debated this
year, 9 were novices and the rest were
junior varsity level. Thus, the team
was still relatively inexperienced.
There were several highlights of the
year.
One of these was the Heart of Illi¬
nois Conference Tournament. Keith
Searight and Joe Hoane took first
place while Eric Secoy and Mark
Schroeder placed second. Another
highlight was the novice team of Steve
Cushman and Jeff Grant’s undefeated
record at Oak Park-River Forest's
Tournament.
Toward the end of the year U-High
teams did well at two of the most
important tournaments of the year.
The ISTA Small State, where Joe
Hoane and Mark Schroeder, made
junior varsity quarter finals division,
and Secoy and Searight received sec¬
ond place in the jr. varsity division. At
IHSA Sectional Secoy and Searight
tied for first, but received second on
the tiebreaker. At State, the duo more
than doubled the number of ballots
taken by either of the U-High teams
which qualified the year before.

initiates busy
National Honor Society was busy as
usual electing new initiates. The fun
started with the fall initiation. Initiates
had to wear masks on Halloween,
carry opened umbrellas in the hall
(one never knew when it might rain)
and occasionally one initiate could be
seen kissing Laura Milligan. She in
return would remove one of his pins.
The seniors had fun putting the jun¬
iors through trials. You might have
seen them dressed as their favorite
athlete or wearing short outfits on a
semi-cold day. You might have even
heard them singing the school song in
the lounge.
NHS completed the year by holding
a reception for the incoming fresh¬
men. They also had their annual initi¬
ates dinner on May 21.

The traditional pie eating contest had Natalie Guichard, Doug Deavers, Kevin Kolbe, and Frank Whalen
shoveling in pie while other students urge them on.
Senate—year of firsts
Senate accomplished a great many
firsts, this year.
It was the first time the band never
showed up for Homecoming, although
this extra money allowed for the Twirp
it
dance, the Christmas semi-formal and
the Valentine's dance.
It was the year of the first-ever Spirit
Week which increased school enthusi¬
asm various ways including a merita-
ble clean-up day where each class cov¬
ered a part of the school.
It was the first time homerooms met
as class meetings, which seemed to
work more effectively. Parking Lot
committee acquired another row of
parking spaces and Senate had stu¬
dent fees raised in fear of a cut in
extracurricular activities.
Students also raised a whopping
$350, for the Crippled Children's
Camp during April’s Fund Drive Week.
Fund Drive was different than previ¬
ous years with its ever popular lunch¬
time Bingo, faculty-student volleyball,
the cake lottery and the pie-in-the-face
of the class president.
Coach Morris spikes the ball, during the faculty-stu¬
dent volleyball game.
The theme for the 1978 AFS weekend
was friendship. We all know that the pur¬
pose of AFS is to bring people from all
different countries and backgrounds
together, to share new ideas and experi¬
ences. U-High's AFS weekend on Febru¬
ary 3, 4, and 5, certainly accomplished
this purpose.
Students from 17 different countries
and their host brother or sister were
invited.
Some of the activities in the weekend
included a tour of the Law and Justice
Center, a tea at the International House
as well as a home basketball game and
an all school dance.
There was also a pot luck and a sing-a-
long at Wesley Foundation.
By Sunday afternoon it was very hard
to say goodbye to our guests, but at least
we were given the chance to make some
very special new found friends.

U-High’s AFS student Francie Eberhard and U-High student Polly Peiffer enjoyed Marysol and Fran-

Homecoming!
“Scheme,” Ghosts mar week
“Just You and Me,” was the theme
for Homecoming ’77. Its traditional
schedule started off Wednesday, Oct.
12, with the hall decorations. The Sen¬
iors won with their colorful decoration
of the lounge (tables arranged in
UHS). Thursday night included the
games between classes with the bon¬
fire shining in the field and soon after
the movie, “Wait Until Dark,” which
kept in the tradition of scary movies.
Friday started with a spirited pep
assembly. IVC then upset U-High in
the football game with a score of 12-7.
Topping of the night was the perfect
yearbook signing party. Alumni were
scattered while books were passed,
hoping to be signed. The next day,
everyone helped to make the dance a
success. Haystacks outlined the
lounge and autumn leaves crumbled
on the floor. Besides the fact that the
band, “Scheme,” didn’t show up, the
night was enjoyed by many. Corona¬
tion of Laura Milligan and Curt Coffer
got on its way and everyone danced to
the amusing sounds on the stereo
brought by Dr. Norris.

Three happy Senior guys arouse everyone’s spirit in the lounge as they stood

The bigger the better. The tighter the sweaters! The boys depend on us!!!”
Meanwhile a cowbell rang in Room 234 and a senior stands and recites Shake¬
speare in PE class.
“What’s wrong with the U-High bunch this week? Everyone’s spirit is higher
than ever, even when football season is over!” exclaimed a confused student

and today is Hat Day.Last week, seniors were auctioned and they had to do a task
today that the buyer requested, if it was reasonable!” responds Tom Scott who is
dressed up as one of our enthusiastic cheerleaders.
Tomorrow is Color Day or Green and Gold Day, and Thursday is Dress-Down
Day. Everyone is required to wear their grubby clothes so we can do a good job in
cleaning the school area in the afternoon,” said a spirited junior.
“Yeah! and Friday is Dress Up Day and the Twirp Dance. The girls are supposed
to ask the boys to the dance. I just don’t know who to ask!” worried a Sophomore
girl.
“Boy, this school must have a lot of school spirit. It shows,” said the squirrely
freshman.
Ballerina Jim Brandt shows us his new outfit.
“Of course it does. Why do you think we’re called the Mean Green
Machine!?!?!!!” concluded a Senior.
Spirit Week gives Kathy Boon and Stacy Striegel some¬
thing to smile about.

Best class night ever
Coach Scott (Dave Taylor) gives us his Weekend-Update while Pat O’Brien and Rima Petrossian + visi¬
tor look on.
The Class of 1978 closes Class Night together, tearfully singing “The Secret of Life is enjoying the passage of time.”
76
The senior class of 1978 finally came
through. After four years of not quite get¬
ting together. Class Night came off a
success.
Teachers, parents, and kids alike
enjoyed the evening of fun and laughs.
Although administrative censorship
- seemed too tough at times, seniors
worked hard to overcome the obstacles.
Class Night Live was the theme of the
show based on the program “Saturday
Night Live."
Appearing as the guest band were the
Nuclear Slugs, while “Coach Scott"
was the Weekend Update host. Four
newscasters read wills while slides of
U-High students were in the back¬
ground. Skits that were acted out
included cheerleaders, dolls, back-
stabbers and PDA.
Class Night as usual is not an easy
job. It takes a good crew to get the job
done. Scenery was done mainly by
Alan Gill and Dave Taylor, while sen¬
iors wrote the script.
The traditional gift giving, (class gift
The dolls skit included Peter Parmantie, Dr. Norris, Ma Hall, Announcer, Metty, Linda Walker and Robin

person so proficient at studying that
he can, at the same time, appear to be

or even sleeping; 3. a special person
who deserves congratulations and a
world of good times.
The Class of ’78 gathered not for
rehearsal, but in caps and gowns for
commencement. Collars were
straightened, caps pinned. Some stu¬
dents giggled; some waited seriously.
Nervous anticipation and excitement
passed from person to person.
Once on stage, apparently calm,
speakers Cathy Crumley, Sue Erick-
sen, and Tim Bergin joined Salutato-
rian Jon Doud and Valedictorian Alan
Gill in addressing the friends and fam¬
ilies gathered. Senior singers sang
"What I Did For Love.”
And finally diplomas were received,
tassles moved — left to right. The
Class of '78 left Stroud, relieved and
happy, to attend the reception in the
lounge.

Ros Hill shows his determination in jumping the
hurdles.
The annual Junior-Senior brunch was
held in the Old Main Room of the Union
on May 19. The food proved to be tradi¬
tionally terrible. Also keeping up with tra¬
dition Senior guys and girls had a good
smoke.
Senior speakers were Laura Milligan,
Chris McHugh, Sarah Townley, Jeff Wil¬
son, Mike Ritt, Pete Ericksen and Alan
Gill. They talked about revising the hand¬
book.
Seniors Sue Howard, Sarah Townley, Jon Doud, Dana Davidson, and Stacy Striegel smile about the fact
they’ve gone to school from Metcalf to U-High for 14 years in the same class.
Senior speakers Chris McHugh, Laura Milligan, Sarah Townley, and Jeff Wilson like rolled cigarettes

Senior Skip day this year was non-exis¬

day off from school and participate in
individual skip days.
Although it was not a school-spon¬

most.

Acaoemically, Juniors filled their
schedules full, so they could enjoy
their Senior year to the fullest. It
was tough but their spirit at games
showed through their heavy stud¬
ies. The Class of ’79 made a lot of
money, with hard work at the tradi¬
tional Coke Bar, lightbulbs and
hats. Total class participation is an
advantage they will always have
over other classes.

The usual Sophomore driving craze came
through on schedule. Basic classes like
Health with good old Coach Scott and Driv¬
er's Ed. with the one and only Coach Morris
provided the class with much to do. No
longer “those freshmen," the Class of '80
started the year out selling pens with bas¬
ketball schedules on them and spirit notes
during Spirit Week. This class spent the
year feeling good as sophs, but wondering
what the next two years had in store for
them.
Typical Sophomores Lynn Jesse and Sue Weldon don’t know which way is up.

Freshmen begin “first act”
As Freshmen enter U-High knowing few if
any students, they start the new experience
called High School. Going to the wrong
class, or trying to down the staircase that
only goes up is the typical Frosh way. The
Class of '81 started to group early and were
highly involved in school activities. Fresh¬
men had a good start for the year ahead.

Me? A yearbook co-editor? That’s right. Me, Kori Sawyer, who can’t write any¬
thing creative, although Mr. Parmantie has tried hard enough, who can’t take a
decent picture, and who spent half of her junior year looking at all the pictures
from previous yearbooks, a yearbook co-editor. Furthermore, I don’t know any¬
thing about journalism. But Sarah must have had faith in me, and anyway, who
but? uaru wen, i learned now xo write creatively (well . . .)
I still can't take decent pictures, but at least I don’t look at all the old pictures,
(at least not the ones that are locked up). Anyway, being a yearbook co-editor
was great fun and although it took up a lot of time, it was worth it Besides, as

and as crazy as Ms. Scott, you’ll wish it would never end. Thanks Peg.

AFS student from Switzerland Francie Eberhard receives her diploma from Mr. Schuler.
Dear U-High,
This year has been a great experi¬
ence for me. You, the Whalen family,
the school staff and the students are
all a part of it. Thank you very much. I
got to know the United States is you
and I also got to know myself and my
home country much better. This all
makes the year here very important to
me.
I enjoyed U-High. It is a very special
school, small and in a big city and still
there are so many possibilities for the
students. I got to know a different
school life and system. It was fun and
I will take back to Switzerland many
new ideas and tell them all about you
here. Since I got to Illinois many of my
ideas about the U.S. have changed. I
know now that not all of you eat food
out of cans and live in skycrapers!!
I hope you too learned something
through us AFS'ers. People from all
over the world are coming each year

to the United States, for most of them it
is a big change in lifestyle. And still —
we are the same — human beings, with
the same feelings, sometimes happy,
sometimes sad and we all need others to
support us. And that’s what AFS is all
about, to accept and understand people
as what they are — human beings and
therefore be able to cooperate with them
as friends.
So long.

I have graduated.
I am starting to wonder what I have
done for the last four years. On college
transcripts l can write down: AFS,
yearbook, English, P-belles, Coke Bar,
accounting, tennis . . . but what does
it really mean?
You learn more from high school
than participating in activities and
going to class, like how to work with a
group of people . . . that good friends
have heart-to-heart talks . . . how to
be a good sport . . . that events like
prom and homecoming are fantastic
but if you have fun with a guy — just
goofing off — isn't that considered a
special event? . . . how to be creative
. . . that if you get rejected once TRY
Clarionette editor Jeff Wilson, see what it can do to
you?
Crazy editors
again and again . . . how to gain
friends . . . how to lose friends . . .
that you have to take dares . . . most
of all, how to be an individual.
Just remember . . . you get out of
life what you put into it. And you
remember the good times from high
school. So make many. SKT

Being Clarionette editor gives Jon Doud an intellec¬
tual look.

work for fun
Working on the Clarion and Clarion¬
ette is not an easy job. It takes a lot of
work, imagination, patience and time.
Sometimes no one shows up to work.
Sometimes deadlines aren’t met.
Sometimes it's not as good as you had
hoped. Sometimes students don’t
even know who is editor. But it’s
rewarding.
You can see your own work in print.
You can learn how to write — and
spell? You can make creative pik
chers. You can get closer to other stu¬
dents at U-High you hardly knew. And
have fun!!
We four editors — Jon Doud and
Jeff Wilson, Clarionette, and Kori Saw¬
yer and Sarah Townley, Clarion, agree
this year was great. We would like to
thank the students who actually
helped us. We also give a huge thank
you to Peggy Scott. Without her help
and guidance we would not have
made it. This included outside of
working on publications. Thanks all —
This year. . .
